Rose: Released by club

Stockport have started releasing players from the squad that were relegated from the Football League this season.

Defender Jordan Rose and striker Tom Fisher both announced that they were leaving via the social networking site Twitter.

Rose posted: "I have been released. Thanks for all the messages, wish you all the best for the future."

He then admitted he had 'no idea' who made the decision not to renew his contract with the club having no manager following the dismissal of Paul Simpson in January and with chairwoman Mary Gibbons resigning earlier this week.

Stockport currently have just three players with contracts that run beyond the summer, with the likes of Greg Tansey and Paul Turnbull expected to attract interest from Football League clubs.
